Install and Configure Apache on Ubuntu Server | Set Up Virtual Host

[@vanclough915]

Josh, you are a God sent. Most how to videos they rush through, but you have an excellent methodical approach. I'm using your video to help me setup my Ubuntu server that is used to point to my GoDaddy domain name and to add a SSL Certificate. Presently I just have the domain name pointing to a public IP that host my Simple-Help server. Problem is that I can't add a SSL certificate because it's not a web server. God bless you sir Van

Man this tutorial was so helpful, I've been looking all over for something like this. You really do a good job of providing enough details to actually understand what's going on and the steps to get there. You don't assume that we know and you take the time to actually explain. Thank you so much. I coded along with you, but one problem I ran into at the end of this video was accessing both of the websites we set up. I was missing the step you mentioned about configuring the hosts file. So instead I only enabled one .conf file and pointed it at the /www directory, then stored both test sites in their own directory there. I was able to access both of them this way. But I would very much love a more detailed video explaining how to set up multiple sites. Thanks man, you rock!

[@enkiimuto1041]

thank you so much for this video, you were very clear and explored some things other tutorials don't!

[@todl.2478]

Yes, you should have mentioned what you said at the end at the very begining... I did all that for nothing. But it did help me understand it.

[@KeepItTechie]

Sorry for not explaining this in the beginning but I'm glad it helped you get a undertsanding of it. Everyones network is different and even if I bought domains I would have to open ports which are none standard and it would have confused people even more. I'll do another vid using the cloud which is easier because ISP's make it difficult to host webservers at the house.

😮 That was a very powerful and concise tutorial you have here. This was really helpful to me 👍. Keep it UP!😊

[@claybowser]

thanks for the video! super helpful.

[@hitthetraget8233]

you keep teaching me stuff abt linux servers my dude! love it, keep it up! :)

[@marcus_b1]

The tutorial that I needed but didn't know that I needed 😅

[@KeepItTechie]

Thanks bro!

[@Itsmecalvin54]

Thanks for this video ❤I still have a doubt about make the ip to domain name , please make the video tutorials about this field .

[@analogymoment]

Thanks for this video

[@KeepItTechie]

No problem!

[@djlotussutol]

Thanks for the video. This gets me started but I need to install PHP, DB, and figure out how to get wordpress setup too. more searching :)

[@KeepItTechie]

I have a LAMP stack video which can help you complete it. Just search the channel. Glad this help.

[@djlotussutol]

@@KeepItTechie A video to think about is the available/enabled files and how to set them up. I ran into a problem. I went ubuntu, nginx, mariadb, php, virtual host setup for two domains. Had it all working. Then I did certbot/lets encrypt which made changes to those files and when I watched videos for wordpress it wanted me to manually add stuff to those files too. That is where I broke stuff. lol. starting over and saving certbot till last and hoping that solves the problem. To keep it short it could be a series. Anyways...still digging into your videos and loving them.

[@vaishu.b9217]

[@ntonso6795]

Thank you ones more for your great job. I have some serious issues and wish you guide me with some reliable reply. 1. How can I setup my server to run PHP instead of default html 2. How can I transfer and update default SQL data on my external hard drive to the new Ubuntu server with compromise it initial functionality 3. Another best way to transfer you code to the server without passing through GitHub, because I don't want my code hanging out there on someone's db. 4 Also how to update these code while it signal maintenance mode 5. Create a backup file that can update record every day 6. How to fuse multiple hard drive into your server to run remotely as if it were one drive Please I will be more than great full if you give me positive feedback that includes making new videos to detail these worries. Thank you very much in advance

[@ntonso6795]

Very nice video, i was wandering if u could just explain why the domain didn't pool out the site immidiately, and the solution through a few commands as well thanks

[@KeepItTechie]

I basically modified my local hosts file "/etc/hosts". Added the ip address and domain name following the format. Every computer has a host file within the os that will be checked first for ip translation before searching any dns servers for the ip address. It will then resolve and go the ip specified in the host file. Thats a quick and dirty answer. I'll make a video on it. Glad I could help and Thanks for watching.

@5:07 I got ERROR: problem running iptables: iptables v1.8.4 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

How do l enable in for the websites we have created to show on the browser??

You're welcome

[@juansebastianriosubeda4693]

Followee the video without problem but when I try to check the url in my browser it does not find it, Im using a virtual machine in virtuak box of ubuntu server and my host is windoes I don't know if that affects something?

[@user-mc2rv1vu1d]

hi, if I want to config virtual host which folder not in /var/www, Ex: /home/user1/web . I try many time but can not run, pls help to config. Tks

[@johnny5941]

Were you using a large monitor in this video and set your screen capture program inside wsl ubuntu window?

[@KeepItTechie]

Are you interested in how I record? My main system is Arch Linux which is what I record on using OBS. I don't use windows or wsl. I'm capturing the terminal on my main system which is how I'm connected to this VM via SSH. I have a server in my closet running proxmox where I create virtual machines with all the different nodes used for tutorials.

[@macblanelw]

You said 'tack' for 'hyphen' when you were typing that filename. Were you in the Navy?

[@KeepItTechie]

@@macblanelw Not the Navy but the Army. We say it that way too. 😂😂

[@Gentamaquay]

Would this tutorial also work for RHEL

[@KeepItTechie]

It uses a different package manager. Ill create another video covering it.

[@Gentamaquay]

@@KeepItTechie thank you brother

[@KeepItTechie]

Hey man, I forgot that I covered it in this video for RHEL: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooW0mauNl6hki80

[@ezeigbodavid.o.4120]

I followed all the steps but I never get same result like yours

[@KeepItTechie]

Whats distro and version are you using? Did you open the ports? Check your firewall.

We need to work together on a video covering STIGS on Linux! Thanks bro!
